This page will detail what information or knowledge roles are expected to know, or not know, at round start.

Humans

  • All Marines and personnel aboard the Sulaco know nothing about the alien infestation, or even that Aliens exist. All they know is that they received a distress signal from a colony, and that contact was lost. It can be inferred that they will meet a hostile force.
  • Survivors are allowed to know everything about the Aliens, such as how facehuggers work and about the existence of the xenomorphs themselves.
  • Besides specialist weaponry which can only be used by Specialists, there are no restrictions on firearm use. However non-marine personal cannot equip any weapon other than a pistol unless there is a confirmed threat of the aliens attacking the Sulaco.
  • Combat Medics and Researchers do not know how to preform surgery, only Medical Doctors or the Chief Medical Officer know how to perform surgery.
  • Marines DO NOT initially know what facehuggers do. However a Medical scan can confirm that a unknown biological parasite is inside a victim of a facehugger, and that logic dictates that it should be removed or examined at the earliest possible chance.
  • In general avoid preforming tasks your round start role would not know how to do, such as a Squad Leader hacking a door or a Cargo Technician operating a overwatch console.
  • Command (CO, XO, Bridge Officer), Medical (MD, CMO) and Engineering staff (CE, Maint Tech) on board the Sulaco cannot leave the Sulaco UNLESS it is to go to a established Forward Operating Base or they are abandoning ship.
  • Only a single Medical Doctor, and a single Maintenance Technician, can go to a established FoB.
  • Military Police can not leave the Sulaco unless they are doing so to track down a rogue Marine who is not on the Sulaco or they are escorting/piloting a Dropship/Droppod. Military Police are expected to return to the Sulaco ASAP.
  • Marines do not know that Iron Bears are hostile, and as such should not shoot at them on first contact.

Aliens

  • Do NOT HARM or kill Marines unless explicit permission is given by the Queen. Ravagers are the exception as they can kill UNINFECTED hosts freely unless the Queen states otherwise.
  • Being given permission to slash a Human does not confer permission to kill Humans. Get the Queen to confirm or deny a kill request.
  • If there is no Queen all Aliens are free to use lethal force on any prey.
  • You do not know that Marines are coming to the planet. Furthermore you cannot prepare defences on or around the Dropship landing zones prior to the Marines arrival.
